A customer is interested in a Synergy solution. They need 100 compute modules and expect the workload to double in two years.
They ask for the minimum number of management ports they will need to connect Synergy frames into their management network.
How should you reply?
- FLMs from all frames connect into a management ring, and the management ring connects into their management network with two uplinks.
- FLMs from all frames connect to two external switches, and these two switches connect into their management network.
- Synergy solution only allows 15 frames to be interconnected, so growth in customer’s workload is not supported.
- The RJ-45 ports on the front of each frame are connected to an external switch, which is connected into their management network.
